Some veterans groups are pushing back against Donald Trump’s veteransfundraising event scheduled for Thursday night, condemning the billionaire’s feud with Fox News and his decision to opt out of the Republican primary debatehosted by the cable network.
One organization, the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, pledged to refuse any funds that Trump may try to donate from his Iowa event, to be held at Drake University at the same time the Republican frontrunner was originally scheduled to appear on Fox News’ debate main stage.
Founder Paul Rieckhoff took to social media Wednesday and said his group did not want to be part of Trump’s “political stunts”:
¨If offered, @IAVA will decline donations from Trump’s event. We need strong policies from candidates, not to be used for political stunts¨.
Trump announced his decision to hold the event Wednesday night, after Fox News refused to replace GOP debate moderator and anchor Megyn Kelly, who Trump complained was “really biased” against him.
